Do these make the conversion in the rear easier?

I have true e30 m3 carriers. No modifying needed.

[E30-323ti]

red brake caliper carriers, time to put your flame suit on.

n00b. e30 m3 5lug setup + s50 swapped = my car can pull off pretty much any look.

I'm inclined to agree with nefarious.

Only big ass 4pots can pull red off!!
And even then I prefer my understated black ones.

Red painted single pot sliding calipers FTL

Colour coded with your car would be subtle but still notable.

soooo.... would you be willing to take a pic of your modified carrier for me?;)

SORRY I have been on the road a lot the past few days. (picked up a s52... :woowoo:)



Anyways I took your picture and pointed out what needed to be done. Hope it helps

very nice ^^ thanks you very much! i will post after pics for every1 else who mite need to do this!

[golde30]

uhhhhgggg, so the 318ti carriers are the same exact part as the e30 non-M rear carriers... i was taking off my e30 stuff and compared to the 318ti rear carriers and they are the same damn thing. unless i got ripped off by the seller who sold me the 318ti rear carriers....

[atomic]

Sounds like you might have gotten ripped off. The 318ti rear carriers I used were different and a bit larger than the standard non //M e30 rear carriers that came off my car.

[golde30]

fuck me. this shit is taking forever. i cant believe i have to look for and wait for parts AGAIN. fuck shit.

If I buy e36 318ti rear hubs, can I press them into my existing e30 rear bearings? If so, what brake setup do I need? I don't want to grind or modify - I just want bolt on.

Also, I'm aiming for ds-II's - to get the correct offset, is this the correct route?

I don't think the bearings are the same size. I think this is mentioned at the beginning of the thread.
